Guidelines for the proposal

Hello all,

Sometime between now and when I see you again on March 24, could you please email me a two-page (maximum) proposal in which you do the following things?

1. Say, in the form of a sentence or two rather than a phrase, what your seminar paper will be about.

2. Explain in a paragraph or so why this is an important topic for you to write about.

3. Explain, again in a paragraph or so, what you already know about this topic.

4. Explain, again in a paragraph or so, what you think you'll need to learn in order to complete your project--a couple of salient, challenging questions you still have.

If you'd like to let me know what you've already read on the topic and ask questions about bibliography you might like to consult, feel free to do that as well.

As always, write to me via email with questions.

DAJ
